It took a lot of convincing to get his father to agree and two other fathers to sign up to help but it all started to come together until the weather turned for the worst. We must have checked the weather 3 times a day!
As always things alway turn out! The weather turned, the rain stopped and the shine shine just as our 4 car parade pulled into the Sandbanks!
I headed to the beach with Owen and 11 of his friends while the dads went to set up camp. And yes you read correctly 12 boys in total!
Sand surfing was a favourite activity as well as baseball and swimming.
After a few hours at the beach we headed back to camp to find the camp all set up.
Hot dogs on the bbq, birthday cake and cupcakes, games and then back to the beach.
Highlight of the party had to be this...,
Second favourite highlight had to be getting stopped by the park cops to be told we couldn't do that!
More baseball and sand surfing on the beach and then back for s'mores on the campfire.
Getting the kids to bed wasn't too bad getting to be quiet at 5am when they all woke was not so much fun. In fact it ruined the morning.
Breakfast, donuts on a string and more beach before we packed and headed home.
Was it a lot of work... Yes
Was Tony cranky for a really long time.. Yes
Will it be a birthday party Owen remembers for the rest of his life....
YES!!
And that's all that matters!
Another wonderful birthday party down.
Just a few more pics from the party!
Happy birthday Owen!!
